Forms inside of tables inside of layers

IE handles it fine, as long as I use a DIV tag, but if I try to put a form field inside of a table (or layer) inside of layer, NS doesn't recognize the form fields inside of the layer, or any form fields below the layer. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can fix this?

are you using <layer> for netscape? - I always use <div></div> for NS and IE - If so your problem is 'almost certainly' a simple code error - NS punishes you big time for a <td> out of place or a missing " in a form field name - it is probably something as simple as that - just bloody hard to find sometimes!.

The only other thing about forms (IE or NS) is that thay ignore the z-index of <div>'s and will always sit on top of any stacked or nested layers - unless you alter the visibility of that layer - they are visible at all times.

When creating layers in NS using the conventional tags such as <div> or <span> each layer takes on it's own document object. So to access something inside of the layer such as a form the syntax would be:

document.layername.document.formname....etc.

For nested layers:

document.layername.document.layername.document.formname....etc.
